    An easy salad dressing recipe is vinegar, honey, and any spices you like--basil, Italian seasoning, etc.

    To change it up try different meats (steak, ham, grill chicken, bbq chicken, shrimp, pork ect...) and seasonings. Always add your favorite veggies if you grill your meat you can use bbq sauce that have low calories even mix it with a light dressing.

    If you go to costco and look for Johnny garlic spread, black pepper, red pepper, and parmesan cheese you can skip the dressing

    Sounds delish except I'd prob skip the canned chicken think it might make it a little too dry for my taste.

    My mom likes to put kidney beans, chopped green onions, and chopped baby corn into her salads, as well as chopped almonds (or whichever nut you like). It's really good.
